Gray Matter of the Brain.

''Many Jokes are made about the gray
matter of the brain, l." said DIR. Hammond.
''but / will say right here that have a
great respect for the gray matter of the
brain. There is no higher organism than
that. 1t is the grandest organ in man,
and were I ever to worship anything it
would be a portion Of the gray matter of
the brain. Ii is well for US TO know that
the emotions cause more unhappiness and
crime than any other function of the
brain. Human beings are governed by
their emotions, and it is well that they
should be. though il is the emotions that
wear away the brain. and not honest in
tellectual work. Very few people suffer
from intellectual work, and il my men,
ory serves me l do not recollect ever
having mathematician for patient.
at is not intellectual work that causes
nervous dyspepsia, but the emotions,
such as anxiety, fear, sorrow and love. /
consider that eight hours are sufficient
for man to use his brain, because IL he
exceeds that time he becomes nervous
and fretful. and an exhausted brain is an
irritable brain. You may not feel the
evil effects of the stress of brain work at
the time, but you will sooner or later,
when it will be too late. The men.that
work at night with their brains are the
ones that expose themselves 10 danger
and death, which will surely come unles,
the great strain on the mind is light

Description Of q Naval Battle.


Those who have read the narrative of
the battle between the Guerrero and the
Constitution during the war of 1919 re-
member that the American frigate, al
though it received three broadsides from
the British man-of-war, did not fire until
she had come to close quarters. Then
her fire was so rapid that in q few min
utes the British ship struck her colors.
The story of the capture, as spoken by a
Frenchman speaking broken English,
sets forth the main points Of the engage
ment:
"You see, I vas come from Marseilles
Nth sheepload vine and cognac; vas 60
to re Levant trade. By'm-by Capitaine
Dacre he come With zat Guerrero, and
he TAX my sheep; and he TAX all my
vine an my cognac in he's sheep; me
an my crew he tax prisoners an he
burn my sheep.
"Pretty soon he say: 'Ah, Capitaine
Dufosse. so look now TO zat Yankee

see zat sheep. .Ah. Capitaine Dufnsse,'
be say, I'm goin' tax zat sheep in

A COLLISION
ON THB PITTSBURG DIVISION OF THB
BALTIMORE AND OHIO,
Yesterday MOrning-A Wild Engine and Freight
Come Togsthsr-Where the
Blame Lies

A rather serious accident Oeeurred yes
teriiay morning on the Pittsburg division
of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, short
distance beyond Triadelphia, in which
freight train No. Sc, and a wild engine
came together with great violence. II
seems that the operator at Elm Grove
failed to deliver orders to the second sec
ton of No. SO, engine No. $50, going east,
calling for the train to pass wild engine
80 going west, at Triadelphia. This
order was received Just few minutes be-
fore passenger train No 102 was due,
when the operator left his desk to sell
tickets to some passengers. While thus en-
gagged the conductor OF No. Sc came in and
took his seat at the operators desk, the
latter surprising for the purpose OF signing
the orders, which we're lying on the desk
before him, but instead of doing 80 the
conductor wrote q message and failed TO
notice the orders awaiting him.
After passenger train No. 1913 had
passed, No. So pulled up, whistled for the
block, and the operator, surprising the
conductor of No. SO had received his
orders, gave the block to 90 ahead. The
operator did not notice that the orders had
not been taken from the desk.
The citizens of Elm Grove believe the
conductor of No. So To be rs much to blame
rs the operator, for they have always
noticed that when entering the office
conductors would say: ''Have you any
thing for u.s." which the conductor of No,
SO failed to do. The operators attention,
AT the time No. 50 pulled up was iii
rected ut the ticket department. The
operator has been very diligent to his duty,
and rs this is his first mistake the citizens
of Elm Grove extend their sympathy and
trust the Il. 4 o. Railroad Company will
exonerate him.
